Breast Augmentation Concord, CA | Eric Mariotti, M.D.

Understanding Breast Augmentation in the East Bay

The curve of a woman's breast represents beauty and femininity. Breast augmentation uses saline or silicone breast implants to help women enhance their breasts and self-confidence. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Eric Mariotti approaches breast enhancement as a perfect blend of scientific precision and artistic vision.

Who Benefits from Breast Augmentation?

Women consider breast augmentation for various reasons, including:

• Small breast size
• Loss of breast volume after weight changes or aging
• Asymmetrical breast development

Personalized Implant Selection

Dr. Mariotti offers comprehensive breast implant options, working closely with patients to determine the ideal implant size, shape, and placement for their unique physique. The goal is achieving natural-looking results that complement individual body proportions.

Breast Augmentation Procedure Details

• Procedure Length: Approximately 1 hour
• Anesthesia: General anesthesia
• Recovery: Initial discomfort for 2-3 days
• Return to Light Activity: 3-5 days

Surgical Approach

Dr. Mariotti typically recommends sub-muscular implant placement to minimize potential complications and create a more natural appearance. The inframammary incision is often preferred, as it provides optimal results and typically results in a discreet scar.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect minimal bandaging and specific post-operative instructions, including breast implant massage techniques. Most individuals can return to desk jobs within 3-5 days and resume more vigorous activities after 6 weeks.

Important Considerations

• Final results typically emerge 6-8 weeks after surgery
• Breastfeeding capabilities are generally preserved
• Consultation is crucial for personalized treatment planning
